So I’m back from my time off and ready to rock 2014! Do you have something you’d desperately like to accomplish this year? Perhaps a special travel destination on the cards? Well, I hope that you’re able to achieve whatever is in your sights for this year.

My mantra for 2014 will be keep focused and stay inspired!

All you crafty creatives out there will be thrilled to hear that the latest 91 Magazine is a Craft Special. Packed full with crafty goodness, the talented ladies at 91 Magazine have pulled out all the stops with their January issue. Take a look at a few of my favourite pages…
